1797 point Scrabble word
Here is a screenshot from a game of Scrabulous (Facebook online Scrabble) in which a single word, deshypothequiez, scores 1797 points.

My French is rudimentary, and I don’t know the rules by which this particular game was played, but impressive nonetheless. And remind me never to play Augustin, though I think I could take Edouard.
Baked Baby flavor?
I saw this in the store last night and found it rather disturbing. It’s a bag of Pepperidge Farms Goldfish crackers, and they appear to be Baked Baby flavor. It reminds me of a line about baby powder. “How do they get the babies in powder form?”

“Who bakes the babies, and did they really think this flavor would sell, and is anyone investigating this?”
